Green Lantern gloves, by Karl Lagerfeld
[Colette x DC Comics’ 75th Anniversary Collection]
These rhinestone-adorned fingerless gloves are a loose, high-end interpretation of Green Lantern’s power ring. This look could easily be replicated with a little DIY with some rhinestones and a pair of pleather wrist-length gloves.

MAC Cosmetics’ Unveils Betty & Veronica Collection Based on the Archie Icons
MAC Cosmetics will be launching their Archie Comics collection just in time for Valentine’s Day, featuring makeup products inspired by Riverdale’s own Betty Cooper and Veronica Lodge. Known for their critically acclaimed beauty products and collaborations with pop culture icons (including Hello Kitty, Barbie, and Wonder Woman), MAC Cosmetics’ Archie Comics products will feature exclusive new shades and special edition accessories. However, the most unique feature of this collection is that the products are evenly split (like Archie’s heart) to suit either the Girl-Next-Door (sweet candy shades of pink and peach) or the Sophisticated Fashionista (deep vixen tones of red and purple).

Teen Titans Robin x Converse sneakers, $37 [available at Converse]
Last Wednesday, I was invited to an event at the Converse store in SoHo, where I got an exclusive sneak peek on the latest and upcoming additions to the Converse x DC Comics collection. The shoes that immediately caught my eye were the Teen Titans Chucks, based off of the designs from the Teen Titans Go! cartoon series. While I wasn’t an avid fan of TTG!, I’m thrilled that Converse finally released kicks featuring my favorite sidekick.
Unfortunately, these Teen Titans sneakers are only available in youth sizes at the moment. Now, I know that I can’t be the only adult who wants Robin sneakers, right?*
Side note: the motif on the inner tongue of the Robin sneakers is killing me. I require a pair of Chucks with an allover Robin symbol motif ASAP.
*RIGHT.
Casper & Richie Rich Look Fresh To Death In Harvey Comics x MISHKA NYC Collection [link]
Just in time for New York Comic Con, menswear label MISHKA NYC collaborated with Harvey Comics for a Fall 2012 capsule collection of t-shirts, tank tops, and snapbacks featuring graphics of Casper and Richie Rich. The campaign for the MISHKA NYC collection also features Harvey Comics’ classic roster of characters including Hot Stuff, Baby Huey, and Wendy, each decked out in the label’s eyeball-emblazoned street gear. While many fashion designers tend to pull inspiration from the masks and capes of DC Comics and Marvel entities, it’s actually quite refreshing to see a streetwear collection inspired by these Harvey icons.
